Perhaps, if you can explain the problem that you faced while booting, we 
could suggest some solution and then there would be no need to 
reinstall. I installed my debian system couple of years ago and it never 
needed a reinstall. Not solving the problem at hand and resorting to 
reinstalling/rebooting is a M$ way of doing stuff. Debian is far more 
superior than that.
